"Twenty-five years after the printing of his seminal 1988 book, Invisible City, Ken Schles revisits his archive and fashions a narrative of lost youth: a delirious, peripatetic walk in the evening air of an irretrievable Downtown New York as he saw and experienced it. Night Walk is a substantive and intimate chronicle of New York's last pre-Internet bohemian outpost, a stream of consciousness portrayal that peels back layers of petulance and squalor to find the frisson and striving of a life lived amongst the rubble."—the publisher

"SPBH Book Club Vol. VII continues Blalock's investigation of stand-ins, or surrogates, with hot dogs acting as line, brushstroke, body part, and still life object.

The book itself is as much object as book with its contents in shifting orientation and the whole thing sealed shut with a sticker."—the publisher

"The Hereditary Estate functions as a ten-year retrospective and as a conceptual work of art. Daniel Coburn's work investigates the family photo album employed as the visual infrastructure for the flawed ideology of the American Dream.

"A photography book that manages to capture the likeness of stars being born to form a galaxy, of plants eroding a vacant land, of the sensation of distance when we look intently while touching, of sediment in the gutter changing its shimmer with the flow of water and temperature.

If we abolish the dichotomy of the living and non-living, and regard all things in the world as living, moving beings, the sensations of us, who are alive, and the guise of the world, alive as well, meet, and from their interaction with each other, a “living form” emerges. A rare book that expresses the Morphology of Goethe, the Anthrosophy of Rudolf Steiner, in the form of art."—the publisher
